[gentoo-user] split-elog setting

On gentoo `Portage log wiki' pages one is told: "In order to create per-category elog files, enable the split-elog Portage feature." (If you want to create `category-based' subdir.) It never gets around to explaining how split-elog is enabled. There is no example in

[gentoo-user] '/' mounted write protected on first boot of vbox gentoo as guest

I installed gentoo in a vbox vm as guest. It boots successfully but is mounted write protected. I didn't see anything in dmesg that I recognized as pointing to the problem. Thought it might be a timing issue during boot processes and so tried to remount rw with `mount -o remount,rw /dev/sda3 /'

[gentoo-user] plain copy of root disk won't work

I want to move the main disk contents (hda, PATA) to another, larger disk (sda, SATA). hda contains 4 ext3 partitions (root, home, data, swap). I created 4 ext3 partitions on sda and copied the data over from the corresponding hda partitions using 'cp -ax'. Then I chroot into sda1,
